Thus this totally rewritten book, The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia, catches up on a decade of new movies [also doch, damn!], animations, novels, comics, video games, role-playing and card games, online material and just about anything else that is "official" and relevant to the saga.

It's not just the newly created fiction. We have integrated such things as story lines and characters from the original Marvel comics, made even more relevant by current authors who have themselves gone back and picked up situations and characters from those wonderfully creative pulps – the Dark Lady Lumiya comes to mind – to integrate their own fiction, giving the saga even more connectivity.
